Manchester United fans are more likely to get a date on Tinder than any other Premier League fan, according to experiment that used all the same details apart from supported club.

In a study carried out by Livefootballtickets.com profiles which claimed they supported Manchester United caught more matches for both men and women than the rest of England's top tier.

Researchers carried out an experiment in which 20 profiles were set up with all the same details, photo, name, age and hobbies, and only the team they supported was changed.

After three days of swiping right fans of the Old Trafford club had the most matches.

Whilst United's struggles this season clearly haven't stopped their fans from gaining interest on Tinder, Norwich City fans can see a direct correlation between how their team are doing and how attractive they are.

Female Canaries' fans are specifically in a bad place with their fans getting 103 less matches than their United counterparts, although it's no surprise when half the United fans they were probably matching with no doubt don't live in the city of their team.

In a survey last year of sexiest fans in the Premier League, United fans only came third, with 18 percent of the vote, behind rivals Liverpool and Chelsea in first and second respectively.

Sexy or not, fans of the Red Devils are obviously very dateable. Get it on Tinder profile, it might help.
